Pennsauken Township was identified as one of New Jersey’s top 40 commuter cities, as identified by the Obrella Insider in a report last month.

New Jersey is often cited as one of the worst states for commuters, but when looking closely at the data, there are plenty of Garden State cities that boast short commutes. In fact, on average, nearly 40 percent of those who live in the best commuter cities in New Jersey get to work in less than 15 minutes, and only seven percent of residents commute for longer than 60 minutes.

To determine the rankings, Obrella analyzed traffic data from the 2013 U.S. Census Bureau survey, considering only New Jersey cities whose population exceeded 10,000 at the time of the survey.

The report visualizes compelling commuter data at the city level, including methods of commuting and a breakdown of commute durations.

Pennsauken Township’s business-friendly environment and accessibility to several highways has drawn a number of large businesses over the last few years. In fact, according to Camden County’s Department of Economic Development, almost three quarters of the county’s recent business development occurred in Pennsauken Township. That’s good news for residents who want to work locally.

For those who head out of town for employment, Pennsauken Township’s newly opened Transit Center makes the commute less stressful.
